Spring Cub and Family - April 12-14
The weather was great the Scouts and families had a great time enjoying the outdoors, and activities. Four Cub Scout Packs participated with a total of 105 attendees at the Grassland Park, Sensory Gardens in Williamson County. Events during the campout included a Rain Gutter Regatta, Archery, Wiffle Ball game with “Ozzie” from the Nashville Sounds and a WEBELOS challenge.

Special thanks to the Williamson County Parks and the Lions Club for supporting the event.
Camp Percy Dempsey - Viking Challenge II
This Spring’s camporee activities included the building of wooden Viking battle ships on canoes, utilizing the rope and lashing skills of Scouts. The battle was epic! Balloons were being fired at opposing ships by Scout crafted launching devises. Saturday’s campfire included Scout skits, fellowship, and tales of the battle. The Nendawen OA Chapter conducted a callout ceremony for the newly elected Scouts.
